Hi Barbra

Is this any good to you?

Here lies the body of JAMES DICKSON son of THOMAS DICKSON IN -------- who died 1772(?) also BETSY DICKSON his daughter who died15.1.1781 age 26 yrs.

This is how it is written in the book the transcriber obviously had trouble making it out.

Hi Leslie,

I have the Creak transcriptions and have found out that the maternal side traces back to the ancient family of Spottiswood or Spotswood through Barbara Spotswood. I understand very little remains of the old Spottiswood Castle and later Mansion.
I was wondering if there are any inscriptions with this name in probably Westruther.
